Defendants.

This matter is now before the undersigned for review of the Report and Recommendation
(“the Report”) filed by United States Magistrate Judge Thomas E. Rogers, III, on December 13,
2011. In his Report, Magistrate Judge Rogers recommends that the Complaint in the abovecaptioned case be dismissed for lack of prosecution pursuant to Rule 41(b) of the Federal Rules of
Civil Procedure. After the Report was filed, plaintiff filed both a response to defendant’s motion for
summary judgment, as well as objections to the Report, in which he indicates he does not wish to
abandon this action.
Based on these additional filings, this Court chooses not to accept the Report recommending
dismissal for failure to prosecute at this time. This case is remanded to the Magistrate Judge for a
Report and Recommendation on the pending motion for summary judgment.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
